Turtles

Today for Science/Art we were learning how to apply knowledge. We drew a turtle then put in five wow facts into a poster. I used a site called Remove.bg where it took away the background of my drawing. Did you know that turtles breathe through their butts?

I learnt that the earliest turtle fossil found was from 220 million years ago in the Triassic Period. I also learnt that Turtles have their spine on the inside of their shell.

My favourite part was learning about turtles because there was so much information I did not know. Like did you know turtles are not social creatures? And did you know that the smallest turtle is the Speckled Cape tortoise?

I found it tricky to know what to do as my facts because I did not know much information about turtles. So I chose to find a site and I found a site called Live Science and that is where I got a lot of my information from.

Next time I would change the background to sea because Turtles live in the sea and not floating in a big blue page. Also I would add more facts.

Here is my google drawing:

    This is a great poster. The picture is stunning. Changing your background is a gerat next step because I think turtles always look so graceful swimming in the water.
    Yes I did know turtles breathe through their butts - as you know that is my favourite 'all time fact'! Well done for hyperlinking the sites you were talking about. Now your readers can access the sites too. I'm so impressed with your lockdown learning.
    Keep up the great mahi!
    Mā te wā,

      Thank you for commenting on my blog.
      I have been thinking lots about my blogging to get as good as I can. I thought linking the site would show them how I did it because the site is easy to use and it would be nice.
